Journal 7: Birds of a Feather

There is a person who people considered we are “twins”; not only the appearance and the height are similar but also the hobbit is same, and his name is Joe Lin. A big black frames glasses sitting on his nose with a black truck cap on his head which is the reason make people confuse we are brother. Due to we were studied in the same major and always hanged out with each other; I also found that our hobbits are actually same such as swimming, playing online games, sketching. However, he is an extroverted person but I’m not. He prefers to hang out with a lot of people and can get along well with them. But he doesn’t like to play basketball or football some kind of physical activity except swimming. Although we’ve been known each other for two years, whatever he still is my closest friend that I reminded me a lot of joys and memories when we hang out each other.  

Journal 6:

If animals could talk that is amazing, at least they can express their emotions which people will be able to get along with them; I believed that it will change the world a lot. Furthermore, if animals give some essential information to people such as the disaster is going to occur and they immediately told people to prepare. But sometimes animals have good sensations; they will try to offer information to people. There is a truth story happen to my uncle. Many years ago, my uncle nourished two dogs, one day one of them ran back to the house, started barking to my uncle and pull his pants on purpose, after several times by pulling his pants and my uncle realized that something is abnormal, at that moment the dog was pacing up and down and seems want to show something to my uncle, and he decided to check what is going on; he followed the dog to the deep trench and found out the other dog which he nourished was stocked in it can not get out. Finally, my uncle took it out form the trench while it was shaking. But he was fine after the rescues. From this story we noticed that dog is a smart and loyal animal because they won’t leave their friends alone.    

Journal 5: Life's Soundtrack- The Climb

One of my favorite songs “The Climb” which sang by Miley Cyrus inspirits me a lot. Before I came to States, I have been listening so many English music, but “the climb” is the song I always repeat and repeat again. Not only the song’s pitches really touch me but the lyrics are also encouraging me. So the song “The Climb” mainly describe life may full of challenge but people should keep going and trying with the head held high. According to the song’s Lyrics, “There’s always gonna be another mountains. I’m always gonna wanna make it move. Always gonna be an uphill battle, sometimes I’m gonna have to lose.” Although sometimes we may surfer a difficult dark time, but we should not give up and just keep walking; it will happen that we have to face the depression; some people will take it as an advantage and others will consider as God must be fooling around. Every time when I depressive I will turn on this song loudly, and told myself it will be alright, just keep for a while and the success may come closer.    

Journal 4: Weather

I’ve been living in south California for a while. Although there is always sunny day but I love this weather so much. Personally I don’t like rainy day because of the feeling by getting wet. When I’m walking on the street and holding an umbrella with the water keep hitting on my face and my cloth, shoes are all damp, for this reason, I would like to stay in my house even for a whole day. In California even after a heavy rain and a couple hours later, there always will have a brightly sunshine meanwhile the air is extremely fresh and the sky is so beautiful and clear. Due to the climate California’s temperature is variety, for example, during the daytime the temperature may rise to 85 Fahrenheit, but when it comes to nighttime the temperature probably drop to 50 Fahrenheit which is 10 Celsius; so every time when I go out at night time, I will always bring my jacket because it is really cold at night even the day time is hot. Well I really like this kind of weather; I think this is my most favorite climate so far.      

Journal 3: Old Fears

The first thing come to my mind of Fear or Phobia, I think it should be robbery. In my memory, that year I was 16 year-old, it was in a summer night, I was so happy for my cousin and my grandparents backed from states because they must bring a lot of gifts for me form the states. However, my grandparents gave some money to me and my cousin, we decided hang out to have a bite. When we took the small road in the neighbor in the dark, two guys suddenly run toward to us with a knife and ask for money. I said I didn’t carry money and they won’t believe that and started searching me while the other guy was going to search my cousin, he was so scared that yelled for help loudly, those guys might got shocked for my cousin’s yelling and ran away. At that moment, my heart was pumping extremely fast. From that moment I really scared robbery and I don’t dare to walk in the dark in the neighborhood. Since I’m growing up, this fear has been overcoming little by little and I think I will fight with them if they don’t have knife on their hand. But now I would like to walk in the bright instead of dark….. and yell for help…J
